Love the different approaches to learning and being able to record and playback my own voice. Very extensive content. Would not like to do this in a classroom. I also had a very present experience talking to someone at Rocket on the phone.

I have been off and on in my learning, but it's nice to know that Rocket French is always available! So, even though I haven't been able to take classes at the local college, I can still work on learning French. Also, I haven't checked out the news in awhile, but I just read about the iOS app for my iPhone! Yay!!

I am very surprised by the method of Rocket language. Recently acquired the Rocket german course, and the lessons are interesting and interactive. Of course, for this kind of course you with need a lot of motivation and discipline, but the advantage is that they give you guidelines to design your learning strategy. I'm really happy with my progress in German. Tschüss!

Very good language program. It moves at a good pace yet not too fast. One of the female speakers in the language and culture section speaks pretty fast for a beginner but the main section is just right.

I only did the free trial and it looks like a premium product already (finished first 2 lessons using all the tools), you can´t get access to the supplementary material only (which is obvious as it´s too good to be free) but the rest is all there: audio lessons which are self-paced and very nicely taught by Nik and Paul, the voice recognition part so you can try and get results on your pronunciation comparing yourself to the native speaker (it works really!), the good idea of having all translated so no need to guess, and finally the tests and quiz so you can see how much you could improve. There is no time limitation on the trial which is great, but once you get to the culture lessons you´ll need the full version but more than willing to pay after being a high-quality product. Keep the good work!

Fantastic! Exactly what I been searching for as an aid to help me in my endeavor to learn a new language. I find this system voice recorder ideal for helping pronouncing words correctly. The tutors in the program are very helpful when trying to express one's self in a manner of speech that the citizens of the country language uses it words and dialect . I find the Rocket language course superior to other foreign language course I've ever took before and, the cost of the program is very reasonable. I would recommend the Rocket language system to anyone or any organization interested im learning a new Language.

Wirklich toll! The only area which I would critique is in connection with pronunciation. Paul's pronunciation is very clear. Nik's is rather Australian. The interactive pronunciation test really appears just to graph speech volume and phrasing rather than the accuracy of your pronunciation itself. You have to compare the recording of your own voice and evaluate for yourself how close your pronunciation is to that of the tutor. That could lead to the repetition of mistakes if your pronunciation goes uncorrected. They could improve this by focusing more on pronunciation, including how pronunciation varies according to regional dialect. I have no doubt that Rocket will improve this over time. Overall, it is simply a wonderful German language learning tool, and one that is very easy and fun to use. "Sehr gute Arbeit! Auf Wiedersehen!"

Been doing the Rocket German for about 3 months. So far, I've enjoyed it for the most part and am looking forward to getting into the second Level. My one complaint/suggestion is that I find the written lessons to be poorly set up. The focus looks like it is supposed to be on grammar in many lessons, yet they are taught with 20+ new vocabulary words in many of them. So instead of focusing on the new grammar rules, you get lost trying to figure out what all of the new vocabulary is. Would suggest using only words already known when first introducing a grammar lesson so that the focus is kept on the grammar and not diverted to the new words. I've come out of several of the written lessons with no more knowledge of the grammar rules then when I went in because 90% of the examples were with new vocabulary. Audio lessons are great though, and overall I still think there are many positives. Looking forward to the updated level one German whenever it is due out.

Response from Rocket Languages

Hi Brian - It's a balancing act to know when new vocabulary should be introduced, as everyone is different in how they learn. Our approach has been to deliver common words and important terminology in our lessons, so that over time the essential vocabulary you need is built up.
